Speaking of Chi Ruiqiu, he truly is an excellent person, genuinely cold on the outside but warm within. Just because of a word from the teacher, he took extra care of Shuangshuang.
His care for Shuangshuang wasn't overstepping; it was really just the attitude of a brother to a sister, with affection and assistance, but no ambiguity.
When Shuangshuang confessed, Chi Ruiqiu was surprised but immediately clarified things, cutting off any potential misunderstanding Shuangshuang might have had about their relationship.
You could say Chi Ruiqiu is a boy with both intelligence and emotional intelligence, treating people well but with boundaries, an exceptionally good boy.
If she were a normal girl, she wouldn't have reached the twisted state of Shuangshuang in the previous life, but Shuangshuang was influenced by the Heart Demon Seed, and she saw Chi Ruiqiu as a light in her life.
